How did frank rudy make the first Nike sole invented?
Frank Rudy did not invent the 1st Nike sole, is a former aeronautical engineer who patented a cushioning system based on an inert gas encapsulated in polyurethane plastic. It was trademarked by Nike as the "Air" sole. Bill Bowerman was the inventor of the 1st sole which was created using his wife's waffle iron: hewas born in Portland, Oregon on February 19, 1911. He attended high school in Medford, Oregon, then played basketball and football at the University of Oregon for four years (1930-1934) and ran track during his junior and senior years. After coaching high school sports in Medford, Bowerman became head coach of the men's track and field team at Oregon in 1948 upon the retirement of legendary coach Bill Hayward. Under Bowerman's leadership, his "Men of Oregon" garnered four NCAA team championships, had 44 All-Americans and 19 Olympians. After being contacted by a former Oregon runner named Phil Knight in January 1964 about buying Tiger running shoes, Bowerman instead suggested that Knight and he become partners. Knight agreed, and Blue Ribbon Sports was born. Bowerman provided both a prestigious endorsement for the Tiger brand and he gave Tiger design ideas that would lead to several industry firsts, including the heel wedge and the full-length midsole. Bowerman's first commerical shoe success was the Cortez, which debuted in 1966 as the 'Mexico' and was later renamed 'Aztec' before its final name change in 1968. In 1971, Bowerman began developing a new rubber outsole that drew its inspiration from the kitchen waffle iron. This led to the debut of the so-called Moon Shoe at the 1972 Olympic Track & Field Trials in Eugene, Oregon, and ultimately to the commercial release of the Waffle Trainer in 1974. Bowerman served on the Nike board of directors until 1999, and passed away at age 88 on December 24, 1999
